Nike Structure Plus

Nike Structure Plus review: what runners say

Fit

True to standard Nike sizing. Narrow midfoot due to the Midfoot Support System: not recommended for wide feet or sensitive flat arches.

Feel

Generous cushioning from the ZoomX/ReactX blend, soft but not responsive ride. The weight and forefoot stiffness become a liability past 9 miles and make any attempt to pick up the pace futile.

Durability

OG/RS hard rubber outsole at the heel and midsole, blown rubber at the forefoot. Estimated lifespan 430–500 miles even for heavier runners.

Best for

Daily trainer for runners seeking stability with high cushioning, paces between 6:30 and 9:40 min/mile, runs up to 9 miles. Also suitable as a walking and everyday shoe. Recommended for athletes up to 200 lbs.

Weak points

Heavy and blocky over longer distances; virtually no forefoot flexibility. The ZoomX proportion is insufficient to generate genuine responsiveness, leaving a flat ride relative to the asking price.
